digital illustration – Misty Blue Arts

Misty Blue Arts is an award-winning, multi-passionate artist and a survivor of thyroid cancer, chronic illness, and childhood trauma. Her work blends whimsy and resilience, often bursting with vibrant color and playful creatures, including the occasional feisty llama.

She works in watercolor, acrylic paint, digital illustration, and clay, creating soul-led pieces that offer refuge, spark joy, and reflect the depth of lived experience. Whether born from heartbreak or hope, Misty’s art is always emotionally honest and infused with wonder, humor, and healing.

Despite everything she’s endured, she still believes in magic and makes art that gently whispers, “You’re not alone.”

Her greatest strengths are her vulnerability, creativity, and courage. Through them, she connects, uplifts, and reminds us: even in darkness, we are not broken, we are unfolding.

I’m an artist forging my own path and I rely on community support to keep going. The best way to help is by collecting my art or grabbing some merch, every piece fuels both my work and my survival as a creator and human being. If you can’t buy right now, that’s okay. Sharing, commenting, or even just hanging out here still means the world to me.
